Transformers: Dark of the Moon

Well
I just came back from the movie theatre where I watched the new Transformers
movie. I arrived about an hour early
because I wanted good seats, which paid off because I got to choose where I
wanted to sit. This being a Michael Bay
film, I knew there was no other way to watch this film but in 3D. First off the graphics were amazing and just
as polished as the first two films.
There were scenes in it where I thought, wow the graphic artists must
have taken years to work on just one scene.
For example when a building is toppling over, and people are falling all
around. The acting this time around was
way better than the first, mainly because there weren’t many dramatic scenes;
mostly action. While Mega Fox wasn’t in
this film, the new female Rose (whatever here last name is) was a much better
replacement.

Yes,
it’s very far-fetched for Sam Witwicky to have 2 beautiful girlfriends in a
row, but come on that’s what summer blockbusters are all about (hot chicks
showing their ass). What also added to
this film was the original characters that came back and you were familiar
with. I wasn’t a fan of the first film,
but after the second film and now the third I became comfortable with the wacky
characters and enjoyed the film itself.
Now the storyline was very good as well, because it finally allowed for
the Autobots to kick some ass. I hated
how in previous films their fight scenes were short, and they never really
demonstrated what they were capable of.
In DOTM, we got to see the Transformers fight one another up-close, and
use different fighting skills and weapons.
Overall this has been my favourite Transformers film and can’t wait to
watch it again.
